Meatless Monday Carrots Recipe Round-Up

Every week we are exploring vegetarian meals for meat eaters. Cooking with seasonal vegetables can seem really limiting at first, but the possibilities are endless. And it is worth it. Just cutting one day of meat eating out of our diet can keep thousands of pounds of CO2 out of the atmosphere a year. No seriously, it's that big a deal. Plus, it's a great opportunity to have some new adventures and try new things. Just another way to take care of the planet AND make life a little bit better!

Who doesn't love carrots? This one might be an easier sell than the last two if you live with a picky eater. That said, it can also be harder to find fresh ideas with an ingredient everyone already uses, so I tried to pick some familiar ideas and some I have never thought of before.

For something really different, try these carrot and lentil cakes with Tahini sauce from Blissful Basil. The flavors here look really warm and familiar, but I think this might be a really fun one to try. Plus, who doesn't love Tahini?

I love carrot and ginger together so I can not wait to try this recipe from The Greedy Vegan. Her whole website looks really amazing, and this sounds so fresh and bright for the middle of winter. I love this take on Carrot soup from that uses ginger and tumeric to spice it up. Not bay leaf. Never bay leaf. This blog does not support bay leaf.

If you are looking for carrot recipes, the number one thing you will find are roasted carrot recipes. And for good reason, they all look freaking delicious. This Chef in Training recipe with brown sugar looks completely irresistible.

If you need some cold winter day carrot soup, this recipe from Well-Plated looks comforting and warm like a big fuzzy blanket. And what kind of villain refuses croutons? This seriously is mouth watering (and another GREAT blog to keep on your radar).

The last one that I thought looked really interesting were these carrot sandwiches from Veganosity. They remind me of a sloppy joe or a pulled pork, and I really want to know what the heck it tastes like. We totally have to try this!

Alright, who wants to try some of these with me? Because I am so excited for these ones I am not even sure where to start! Yay deliciousness!
